Mr. A. Stands is well-known farmer
whose residence is in Spartanburg, s. G..
He is a man of means and education. His
standing in his community is A for truth
and probity. While Mr.. Stands refrains
from using the word cancer, the facts he
gives settles the question of the nature of
his disease. He says his physicians never
said the sore was a cancer, but that they
warned him that there was great danger
that it might turn into a cancer. At any
rate, none of them could afford Mr.. Stands
the slightest relief, and finally he was
cured by s. s. S., the finest and only alb
solutely certain blood purifier in the world.
| Below is Mr.. Stands own letter about his
cure Let any one suffering from a SINH
| lar ailment write to Mr.. Stands, and learn
| from him the exact effects of the wonder
full medicine that cured him.

inhamed the sore, and it became more vir-
ulent than ever; so much so, indeed, that
my family insisted that / should leave of
the medicine. / persisted in using the s
lis. S. At the end of two months the sore
was entirely healed. Thinking that tn.
evil was out of my constitution, left off tbs
medicine; but in November, ten month.
after, a very slight breaking out appeared
at once began again on s. s. S., and now
that is also disappearing. I have every
faith in S. S. s. 1t has done me NOR,
good than all the doctors and other medi
cines ever took. Yours truly,
